John ,
You will be missed. You were my daughter's CCD teacher,so many years ago. You were a friend among friends. You even tried to help us sell our house when we made it quite impossible. You shared your wisdom with all of us you met on that road of happy destiny. Peace be with you and rest in peace. Your family is in my prayers. 🙏
Even though John and I were divorced for many years, we remained good friends. The best memories that I hold dear the ones of the two of us walking both of our sons down the aisle for their weddings. Family is the most important thing even when you’re divorced or separated. You still need to maintain that relationship to keep your family whole. John and I made that a priority and I thank him for for that.
Well dad…you and I had talked often about this day. You would tell me many times “Daniel, there is no need to fear death. It is as natural and beautiful as life itself. I welcome it!”. You always said you would die in your home, your way on your terms. We made that happen big guy!!! When you and I put our minds together we always figured it out. Pedro, Steve, Carmen, Simone, Mary, Alexis, and Dona were your angels who showed you the compassion you deserved more than anyone else I know. They gave all of us the peace of mind that you would have the opportunity to live out your days like the King you are. Love you dad…now try to pull some strings for the Cubs please.
